People’s Movement Assembly: We Marched, Now We Act!

On Sunday January 21, 2018, we will once again convene the community in a anti-inauguration People's Movement Assembly (PMA) under the current Trump administration. We invite community members in Whatcom and Skagit Counties to join us in a participative analysis of actions and commitments from our PMA held in January of 2017. It is critical that we come together to fight harder than ever because the survival of immigrant community members, indigenous community members, our freedoms, human rights, democracy, the health of women and children, and Mother Earth are at stake. This is part of a process to intersect issues that are affecting our communities and are being led by the people on the frontlines of struggles.

The PMA is a space we together create to grow power in and for the people. It is a process in collective problem-solving by all involved. It is an act of coming together to share, work and move toward a collective vision. Issues are focused on frontline communities where the most influential movements are taking place. This is part of a process to intersect issues that are affecting our communities and are being led by the people on the frontlines of struggles. The PMA is a social movement of the people most affected by historical and current injustices to demand justice with a coordinated and sustained collective force.

This year, we will grow our resistance against the current Trump administration and impending fascist forces of capitalism, racism, white supremacy and settler colonialism. Together we will envision the road towards a Just Transition and a better way that leaves nobody behind!
